What should I look for in a vlogging camera?

A camera that is suitable for vlogging has some features that will make it easier for you to work with / create video content. These include some of the following features:

  • Swivel display / flip display
  • Sensor stabilization
  • Face / eye autofocus
  • Future-oriented video resolutions like 4k, 5.7k or 8k
  • Generous video formats +amp; codecs for color profiles

Other aspects that is crucial when buying a camera, how heavy is the camera and what accessories make sense in this context?

What accessories for a vlogging setup?

A good accessory for the vlogging camera is a handle or a small gimbal. A flexible tripod as well as with many cameras a small external microphone. Why an external microphone? Good sound is half the battle for a successful vlog.

Tips for better vlogs

  • Have fun talking in front of the camera and pass on your fun and enjoyment to your viewers
  • Be close to the camera for good sound and users on mobile can view you better than if you are just a small dot in the video
  • Avoid loud and annoying sounds like street noise
  • If you use background music, make sure it is not too loud and dominant in the video
  • Make sure your video is a good length of 10-15 minutes
  • Zoom into your image where you are walking towards the object
  • Try to have the sun in your back if possible
  • Look into the lens. It can help if you first look at the brand logo of the camera

Which lens / focal length for vlogs?

Most vloggers like to use a very wide angle lens, be it a super / ultra wide angle or a normal wide angle lens. Our go-to recommendation here is the classic 16-35mm lens and a 24-70mm lens. The advantage of a 24-70mm lens is that they are usually already available at affordable prices. Whether as F/4 or as F/2.8 variant. Another advantage is the weight and the focal length itself, from wide angle to a light telephoto lens. This combines in this lens.

Costs for a vlogging system

Who first wants to find out whether he / she lies the Vlogging, which can also start with a smartphone to make the first recordings. We advise the use of a smartphone gimbal. Of course, the quality of mobile videos is currently not yet sufficient to justify paid advertising cooperation. (Unless we're talking about Instagram Stories, or Reels) If you want to film in a high video quality, you also need a powerful PC / laptop to edit the video material without frustration and then later export it quickly.
